Senior Site Manager

Senior Site Manager – Major Office Refurbishment Reigate, Surrey I’m working with an established and growing contractor that is looking to appoint a Senior Site Manager for a major office refurbishment and building-services upgrade in Reigate. This is effectively a “mini Project Manager” position. You will be the operational lead on site, taking responsibility for the day-to-day delivery of the scheme across two office blocks, from the early stages through to commissioning and handover. The project is being delivered over a 52-week programme, with completion scheduled for August 2027. The scope includes the complete replacement and upgrade of the building’s mechanical, electrical and public-health services, together with associated architectural and builders’ works. Key elements include: * New VRF heating and cooling systems, AHUs, air-source heat pumps and ventilation * Replacement power distribution, lighting, emergency lighting and containment * Installation and integration of a new Building Management System * Domestic water, drainage and sanitary services * Refurbishment of WC facilities throughout both buildings * Refurbishment and upgrading of the existing lifts * EV charging infrastructure, car-park works and associated external works As Senior Site Manager, you will: * Take overall responsibility for the daily management and coordination of the site * Manage the site team, specialist subcontractors and building-services packages * Drive the programme and ensure works are properly sequenced across both blocks * Lead client, consultant and subcontractor meetings * Coordinate design information and resolve technical or logistical issues * Maintain high standards of health and safety, quality and site presentation * Monitor progress, report against programme and identify potential delays * Oversee testing, commissioning, snagging and final handover * Work closely with the commercial and senior management teams throughout delivery The successful candidate will ideally have: * Experience working as a Senior Site Manager, No.1 Site Manager or Project Manager * A strong main-contractor or principal-contractor background * Experience delivering technically complex refurbishment projects * A good understanding of mechanical, electrical and public-health services * The confidence to manage the wider project rather than an individual package * Strong programming, subcontractor-management and client-facing skills * SMSTS, CSCS and First Aid qualifications This would particularly suit an experienced Senior Site Manager who is ready to take ownership of an entire project and operate with the responsibility of a Project Manager. A competitive salary and package will be offered, depending on experience
